Adding federation to pixelfed has been quite the journey, the technical aspects are easy but the UI is the hardest part. The UI is the most important feature of any website.

After the first release I will finish https://activitypubguide.github.io/guide/

To test my implementation, I'm looking for some accounts on systems different from Pleroma, Mastodon and Hubzilla. Can someone suggest me some nice accounts on Peertube, Pixelfed and others who post on a regular basis in English or German?

aaronpk: Which system are you using?
#
aaronpk
None, I wrote it from scratch
#

It's just part of my website
#
heluecht[m]
Cool.

aaronpk: Hmm, my comment hadn't arrived on your system, although it had been delivered.

I just realized that Mastodon has got some problem with only showing the link to the content when the object is an article.
#
heluecht[m]
Problem is: This doesn't work for non public posts.
#

converting articles into notes by showing title+link is an explicit design decision
#
heluecht[m]
But the link doesn't make sense with non public articles, since the destination won't be reachable.
